If it is a ratio of 3:5 you are dividing 480 into 8 parts (3+5).


So divide 480 by 8: 480/8 = 60


Then the ratio is (3x60):(5x60) or 180:300


To check it is correct, add up the two parts to see that they come to 480:


180+300 = 480. All good.


Hope this helps

Answer:

The number 480 after dividing in the ratio 3:5 are 180 and 300

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to divide the number 480 in the ratio 3:5

Let the numbers after dividing be 3x and 5x

(3x:5x=3:5)

3x+5x=480

⇒ 8x=480

Dividing both sides by 8, we get

x=60

So, the numbers after dividing are:

3×60=180

and 5×60=300

Hence, the number 480 after dividing in the ratio 3:5 are 180 and 300

maw [93]

Answer:

No because when you set it up it would be 11/9.4 which equals 1.17

Then you do the other side, 10/8.4 which equals 1.19

And 1.17 doesn't equal 1.19 so they are not similar

On March 17th, Pinny Sporting Goods accepted a credit card purchase for $900. The credit card company charges a 2% service fee.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

A : debit to Service Charge Expense of $18.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, one should calculate the value, in dollars of the credit card service fee

Fee = 2% x $900 = $18.

Since this fee is classified as "money coming out" of the account, the entry to a record of this transaction should include a debit to Service Charge Expense of $18.

The correct answer is alternative A.

*The whole purchase amount ($900) should be credited and the service expense should be debited, unlike alternative C, which merges both entries into one.
